Today (April 29th), CompTIA started beta testing the new Cloud Essentials (CLO-002) certification. Information relating to the exam is contained below:

My plan is to take the exam as soon as I can get a voucher and complete some limited preparation. In terms of preparation I started by creating a Worksheet from the new exam objectives. I’ll do my typical study method which involved going through the exam objectives, identify content I’m not familiar with, and utilizing Google to search for information relating to that content. I’ll update this post as I move forward.

AWS Training Effort

As the result of a grant funded opportunity, this summer I will be leading the efforts of ten (10) faculty members as they review curriculum associated with the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Practitioner and Architect-Associate certifications. Taking on this lead role, I’ll be evaluating potential learning resources that include an AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate 2019 course created by Ryan Kroonenburg and available through Udemy. I have started the course, completing about 10% of the work and find it of amazing quality. Additionally I will be evaluation standard textbooks through this evaluation process and take both certification exams. I want to accomplish this within the next 30 days so I can provide faculty with a TTT syllabus, with the goal of having them start the course after July 1st (start of the grant funding period) and finishing it before the beginning of the fall semester in August. I will continue to post to this blog site, providing feedback as I go through this process.
